Abstract/Contents: | Presents a study with the following objectives: "1. Determine the composition and species richness of avian communities occupying a gradient of golf course landscape units and habitat types located along the South Atlantic coast during breeding season. 2. Examine the influence of landscape context and characteristics of golf courses on the composition and species richness of avian communities. 3. Produce a technical publication with management and design recommendations, brochure, and color poster targeted at golf course stakeholder groups." This three year study began in 1998. |

USGA Summary Points: | Selection of study sites was accomplished through a combination of field visits and examination of color-infrared aerial photography. Habitat or vegetation features of each golf course were determined using GIS technology integrated with remote sensing and image analysis. Habitat features include the composition, size, shape, type, number, heterogeneity, and boundary characteristics of vegetation. A total of 301 bird counts were conducted on 12 golf courses along the north coast of South Carolina. Eighty-five bird species were detected of which 27 were neotropical migrants. |
